NSW Government’s Electric Vehicle Strategy

The NSW Government is investing almost half a billion dollars from 2021-22 to 2025-26 to incentivise the uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) and reduce barriers for the transition to EVs.

This EV package supports NSW families and businesses to make the move to the vehicles of the future, now.

The NSW Government’s EV Strategy is driving the uptake of EVs so that they will represent more than 50% of new car sales by 2030-31 and the vast majority of new car sales by 2035, preparing the NSW road network for a low-emissions future.

Under this EV Strategy, the NSW Government is:

  • Investing $149 million to build a world class road network of ultra-fast charging stations, and $50 million to co-fund destination, commuter carpark and kerbside charging.
  • Providing $105 million in support for private and local government fleets to take up EVs.
  • Transitioning the NSW Government passenger fleet to EVs by 2030.

The Government also provided rebates and stamp duty exemptions for eligible EV purchases made before 1 January 2024.
